LEVERAGED BUYOUT: A method of corporate takeover or merger popularized in the 1980s in which the controlling interest in a company's corporate stock was purchased using a substantial fraction of borrowed funds. These takeovers were, as the financial-types say, heavily leveraged. The person or company doing the "taking over" used very little of their own money and borrowed the rest, often by issuing extremely risky, but high interest, "junk" bonds. These bonds were high-risk, and thus paid a high interest rate, because little or nothing backed them up.

GDP can be measured in two different ways.- Demand-side: In a market transaction, the buyer pays a price for a good or a service based on the value of the good. This indicates that the value of GDP can be measured from expenditures.
- Supply-side: For seller's, the revenue received from selling a good is used to pay resources--the cost of production. This indicates that the value of GDP can be measured by the resource cost of production.
- These two sides--expenditures and resources--give us two ways of measuring GDP.
- Each can be used to check the other.
